Chip is a sweet, playful, curious, and loving 2-year-old Pit Bull mix who weighs 60 pounds. This affectionate “Velcro dog” loves cuddling, staying close to his people, sniffing walks, car rides, outdoor adventures, and dressing up in costumes. He is looking for an experienced adopter who can offer patience, safety, continued training, and plenty of love.
Ideal Home
Chip would do best with people who enjoy having a loyal companion by their side. He has done well with calm foster dogs who enjoy his energetic play style, but slow introductions are recommended. He could also thrive as the only dog if he gets regular outings. Chip should not live with cats. He has done well around older children.
Chip can be anxious when left alone, though he is working on his separation anxiety and can be crated while home alone. After an initial decompression period, he enjoys playing with all his toys.
Ongoing Health
Chip is neutered and vaccinated. His listed breed and age are estimates based on veterinary recommendations.
Training & Support
Chip is crate-trained, potty-trained, and walks well on leash. He will benefit from a family committed to continuing his training and helping him build confidence.
